Stocking Ideas for SA 125g

[David R]

So my final plan for my 125 is:

7 Geophagus "Peach Face"
Pr Severum
Pr Wild Type Angels
Pr Hypsophrys nicaraguensis
Assorted Tetras/Swords
Couple Loaches/Catfish

IMO if you want to keep it south american then get rid of the nics (they probably won't work out that well when they get to adult size and start breeding anyway) and maybe keep either a single or a couple of male severums to avoid breeding.

^ I agree with this 100%.

A 125 is on the small size for adult Uaru IMO. If you looking for larger schooling SA tetra, try Columbian Tetras (Hyphessobrycon Colombianus). They have blue flanks, with a red caudal pattern and stay tightly together in a school. I keep a group with my OH's and love them.
